Selecting a new home base for a ship - 3/18/2016 9:12:38 PM

Status: offline 		New user question.. I can't seem to be able to assign a ship to a home base. I select a port facility with a dock but it doesn't take. I am able to assign aircraft to homebases.

When a ship runs low on fuel I'd like it to return to port like an aircraft would. Also is there any other reason why you might assign a ship to a home base?

Thanks.

Status: offline 		So I have tried "Select new home base" with different combinations of ships and piers and still not having any luck. I even tried the Brother against Brother scenario and added a larger pier but the "assigned base" never changes from "none"

Is there another scenario that you know to be working? I'm finding most scenarios have air bases and few with naval bases and piers. thanks.
